  2. Functional dependency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_dependency

    Customarily X is called the determinant set and Y the dependent set. A functional dependency FD: X → Y is called trivial if Y is a subset of X. In other words, a dependency FD: X → Y means that the values of Y are determined by the values of X. Two tuples sharing the same values of X will necessarily have the same values of Y.

  3. Database model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_model

    A set consists of circular linked lists where one record type, the set owner or parent, appears once in each circle, and a second record type, the subordinate or child, may appear multiple times in each circle. In this way a hierarchy may be established between any two record types, e.g., type A is the owner of B.

  4. Consistency (database systems) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consistency_(database_systems)

    In database systems, consistency (or correctness) refers to the requirement that any given database transaction must change affected data only in allowed ways. Any data written to the database must be valid according to all defined rules, including constraints, cascades, triggers, and any combination thereof. This does not guarantee correctness ...

  5. Database normalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_normalization

    Let's set an example convention saying a book up to 350 pages is considered "slim" and a book over 350 pages is considered "thick". This convention is technically a constraint but it is neither a domain constraint nor a key constraint; therefore we cannot rely on domain constraints and key constraints to keep the data integrity.

  6. Data control language - Wikipedia

    For example: GRANT can be used to give privileges to user to do SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE on a specific table or multiple tables. The REVOKE command is used take back a privilege (default) or revoking specific command like UPDATE or DELETE based on requirements.

  7. Check constraint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_constraint

    A check constraint is a type of integrity constraint in SQL which specifies a requirement that must be met by each row in a database table. The constraint must be a predicate . It can refer to a single column, or multiple columns of the table.

  8. ACID - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID

    The following examples further illustrate the ACID properties. In these examples, the database table has two columns, A and B. An integrity constraint requires that the value in A and the value in B must sum to 100. The following SQL code creates a table as described above:

  9. Dependency (project management) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dependency_(project...

    In a project network, a dependency is a link among a project's terminal elements. [citation needed]The A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide) does not define the term dependency, but refers for this term to a logical relationship, which in turn is defined as dependency between two activities, or between an activity and a milestone.
